"It was always my dream to speak French fluently and after just three lessons, I am already speaking with my friends and coworkers like a natural.

Patr

ick is a fantastic teacher but more so than this he is a patient and kind person; one who works with my-and all of his students'-busy work schedules. You will not regret choosing Patrick as a your professor."

"Lipeng is an amazing pianist and violinist artist herself, however she is an even more splendid teacher. She is so patient and encouraging with a adult st

udent(I). Her technique and attention to music detail is amazing. She encourages relaxed recitals for students to gain confidence in a larger setting without pressure. my friends were impressed with my development and progress all along the classes because I had a great teacher! Would highly recommend!!!!"

"Simona is great with my daughter. She is very patient and works well with my 8-year-old. My daughter has learned several words in Italian, and our goal i

s to continue to take lessons from Simona on an ongoing basis as we travel to Italy every summer. I think that my little one will be much more comfortable with her cousins next summer after taking lessons from Simona for the year."

"Wonderful teacher! Youngju makes learning Korean fun and approachable! I had little experience with Hangul and had never studied Korean before. I highly r

ecommend Youngju as a teacher as well as any of her online group classes! In addition to grammar/pronunciation teachings, she provides cultural/historical background to the topics, is willing to answer all questions, and makes sure all students are comfortable with the material!감사합니다"
